Hi folks, yes it's just over five months since my last post and I reckoned it was time to come back to my blog and get back up to date again.

First of all, I cannot crochet at all at the moment. A month ago, I fell in the street and broke my left wrist. My wrist is in a cast and will remain so until 19th November, when I go back to the hospital to have the pins removed. Then I'll need physio to get everything back to normal.

I can't go to work, I can't crochet, typing is a tedious one-handed job, and it takes me almost an hour to get up and dressed in the morning. Not to mention how my wardrobe is now limited to the clothes that are easy to put on (no zips!) and that fit over the cast.

But I decided not to whine about it. My husband helps me when I need it. I can still use my camera a bit. I at last took a photo of Charles in his finished state :) I can still write. And I can still draw. And drawing is what I've been doing most of. Here are some of my drawings. I hope you like them

About Me

Hello and welcome to my blog. It's nice of you to pass by and if you feel like it, do leave me a little comment so this blog thingy can be a two-way communication, and I don't have the feeling that I'm blabbing on and nobody's listening.
I try to juggle a full-time job in communications, living life to the full with my family and enjoying crafts and cooking in my free time.
It's my sister Liz who taught me how to crochet when I was about 10 years old, and in March 2010, while recovering from surgery and thus with a bit more free time on my hands, I discovered amigurumi, Japanese for "crochet soft animals" and I've not stopped since! I also sew a bit, mostly making soft toys, which I offer as gifts to friends and family. My other interests are cooking, reading, learning, walking, crafting, and sharing my thoughts here on my blog.
